I Will Follow You Into the Dark - Saxophone Arrangement

This is an original instrumental arrangement of one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands: I Will Follow You into the Dark, by Death Cab for Cutie.

I performed all the parts in this arrangement on my alto saxophone, resulting in an original take on an already original romantic tune.

I don't know what Ben Gibbard would think of this version of his song, but I'd hope he'd be amused.

I play saxophone, have for five years. Not t be cocky but I'm pretty good,although I have much more to improve. I hope to have a tone as great as you some day :)

[machelli]

@KendoNatsumi Awww! That's sweet of you to say. Of course, I've been playing the sax for about 17 years, so I have no doubt that if you keep doing what you're doing, you'll have a tone much better than mine by the time you reach the same benchmark.

I love the percussive aspect, and the counterpoint is very nice. You did a great job of arranging AND performing this song!

[machelli]

@fabINkennesaw Ah...legitimate music terms! Reminds me of an idea I had to record some classical music on the sax as well. Might be interesting...

I've always failed to be able to try is arrange pieces where some of the quartet just ... play percussion (in a string quartet). I never now where to put it.
